I am always early and schedule to be his first appt. he is always there before me and takes me within minutes of my arrival. He listens. He tells me what I need to to. He cares. A great medical professional!

very pleased with his professionalism

I have been seeing Dr. Cotler as a patient for 14 years. Not only is he my doctor I consider him a friend. I have PSC which is an incurable disease and without a transplant there are no options. Dr. Cotler gave me the devistating news 2 years ago that I was removed from the transplant list. Dr. Cotler and his Hepatolgy team at Loyola & nursing staff on the 5th floor are truly a God send. Thank you.
